Abstract

In this study, the effect of CaO as alloying element on Mg-Zn-Y and Mg-Y-Zn alloys were investigated to develop wrought magnesium alloys available for aeronautic components. The evaluation for the effect of CaO addition in these alloy systems was performed by the processing map development, the tensile test, and the ignition temperature measurement. The addition of CaO changed the hot workability and improved the ignition resistance of both Mg-Zn-Y and Mg-Y-Zn alloys. Although the mechanical properties of CaO added Mg-Zn-Y alloy were lower than those of Mg-Zn-Y alloy, the CaO addition in Mg-Y-Zn alloy enhanced the ductility of the alloy. The effect of metallic Ca addition in these alloy systems were investigated to be compared with the CaO addition.
